My research involves the search and discovery of antibacterial and other bioactive compounds from fermented seed meals produced by our industrial partner in the project, European Protein A/S. Focus is on fermented rapeseed/canola meal, which seems to entail beneficial effects on gut (and general) health when fed to livestock such as pigs and poultry. More information about the project can be found here.I perform different in vitro assays to evaluate the antibacterial activity of fermented seed meals. Metabolite analyses of meals and samples collected from animal experiments are performed using LC-MS and GC-MS.
